The volume of a cone is 27 cm3
. What is the volume of a cylinder that shares the same radius and height as the cone?

The volume \( V \) of a cone is given by the formula:

\[
V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h
\]

Where \( r \) is the radius and \( h \) is the height of the cone.

Given that the volume of the cone is \( 27 \, \text{cm}^3 \), we can express this as:

\[
\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h = 27
\]

The volume \( V \) of a cylinder is given by the formula:

\[
V = \pi r^2 h
\]

Notice that the volume of the cylinder is three times the volume of the cone, since the volume of the cone is multiplied by 3 to obtain the volume of the cylinder:

\[
V_{\text{cylinder}} = 3 \times V_{\text{cone}} = 3 \times 27 \, \text{cm}^3 = 81 \, \text{cm}^3
\]

Thus, the volume of the cylinder that shares the same radius and height as the cone is:

\[
\boxed{81 \, \text{cm}^3}
\]
